Podcasts about Makah

What does a promise from Hashem mean? Why say Geula in four different ways? Why did Hashem harden Pharos's heart? Why did Hashem give the Egyptians the ability to copy Aharon's miracle? Why did the Makah of Kinnim affect the land of Goshen?

As a recent convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Jon has found so many things that align between our teachings and practices and that of his Makah heritage. Especially the Potlatch. As he learns more about both, he wishes that his people could see that value in each. He feels like the traditional potlatch is going away--and wishes that he knew how to revive it. But he also sees that by learning the Gospel, he really is living a potlatch-life. He wishes he could share the Good News of Jesus Christ with everyone so everyone can live a potlatch-life!

This week, we are taking a journey into the lives of Larry and myself, Inelia.Inelia Benz's life reads like an adventurous novel. Born in Chile to a Mapuche-Gypsy mother and a disowned Spanish noble father of a renowned Alchemical lineage, both politicians and professors, she witnessed two military coups in Chile and Argentina, and a coup attempt in Spain – talk about a dramatic childhood! She lived in Chile, Argentina, Scotland, England, and Spain, and eventually settled in Ireland for her early adult years. There, she graduated with honors in Communication Studies, adding another layer to her diverse cultural tapestry.Inelia is famous for her work in reality expansion, consciousness evolution, self-empowerment, authentic living, healing, and the growth of perception. With a lineage that includes Mapuche Machi wisdom and Spanish Alchemist roots, she's practically destined to see beyond the everyday illusions we call "reality." Her broad exposure to different cultures and human experiences has equipped her with a unique perspective, making her a guiding light for those seeking to expand their consciousness and live more authentic, awakened lives.Larry Buzzell had a childhood that could be described as a rollercoaster, with stops in Washington and Alaska. He started life on an original hippy organic holistic farm with his Makah stay-at-home mom, which was as idyllic as it sounds. Things took a turn when a divorce brought an alcoholic, gun-swinging, psychopathic logger into the mix. He then moved to Alaska, which wasn't all bad – it offered some respite, though with a sprinkle of bear-induced terror. At 17, Larry decided he'd had enough of the wild and headed to California to uncover the mystery of "Cali." After graduating high school, he managed restaurants in the heart of Hollywood and quickly learned that Cali wasn't all it was cracked up to be. So, he joined the Coast Guard, where he got schooled in ship navigation and Beer-n-Whiskey 101. He even found time to get married.After four years, Larry left the Coast Guard and moved to the Makah Reservation with his then-wife, attempting a 9-to-5 life. That was until one fishing trip with his cousins convinced him to ditch the office and embrace the wild seas as a commercial fisherman. Fast forward to 2008, Larry had an epiphany about 9/11 being an inside job, which nudged him out of his alcoholic haze and onto a path of awakening. By 2010, he discovered Inelia Benz's work, took her Ascension 101 course, and – true to its promise – his life transformed for the better.Now, Larry is a respected elder of the Makah Tribe, a professional podcaster, and a former commercial fisherman and Coast Guard veteran. His work shines a light on the brilliance of lightworkers everywhere.In the Second Half of Driving To The Rez, which you can subscribe to support the podcast here, Larry and I explore the personal consequences of addiction and possession. We will also hear what they would tell their younger selves if they had a chance.Enjoy!Inelia This is a public episode.

For the first time in 25 years, the Makah Tribe of Neah Bay will once again be allowed to hunt the Eastern Pacific Gray Whale. The tribe, which is located in the northwest corner of the Olympic Peninsula, has the only treaty in the US that explicitly includes the right to hunt whales for cultural and sustenance purposes. But, in the past 90 years, they have only been allowed to exercise that right once, in 1999, when tribal members harpooned a whale.  The ceremony was controversial: there were threats of violence, protestors on boats tried to stop the hunt. At vigils, activists held signs that said “Save the whales, kill a Makah.” It also sparked decades of court battles, scientific reviews, and bureaucracy. Now, following the 2021 recommendation of a judge to grant the Makah a waiver, the  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, also known as NOAA, has authorized a return of whaling.

We said in the Hagaddah ״ UB'Moftim Zeh HaDam/ And with wonders,” this refers to Blood When the Torah describes one of the ways Hashem took us out of Mitzrayim with moftim , it's referring to Dam/Blood . The Rishonim ask why Dam would be singled out here if there were another nine Makot . What was so special about Dam that it's called Moftim ? The Ritva explains that with all the other Makot , once they started, they were basically the same throughout, but Dam was continuously changing back and forth. When the water went to the Mitzri , it was blood. When it went to the Jew, it was water. If a person wanted to see Emunah clearly with his own eyes, he could have taken a bottle of water f and handed it to the Mitzri, see it turn into blood, then take it back and see it turn into water, and so forth. That was Moftim . There were numerous miracles taking place constantly. Others explain that the reference to Dam here is not the Makah of Dam . It refers to when Moshe Rabbenu came to inform the Jews that Hashem was going to save them from Mitzrayim. Moshe asked Hashem, How could I prove it to them, and Hashem gave him signs to give over. First, he showed them the stick that turned into a snake( ub'otot zeh hamateh). Then he showed them that his hand could turn into Tzara'at (The Baal Haggadah did not want to mention that, out of kavod for the Tzadik ) Then came the Moftim , the Dam . Moshe Rabbenu took water out of the Nile, poured it onto the floor, and it turned into blood. Then the Jewish people believed. They believed that Hashem was going to save them, and this was the Emunah they needed to earn the zechut to be redeemed. And we praise Hashem now, what a Chessed!! Hashem could have said, If they don't believe, then I'm not going to help them . But instead, He gave them clear and open signs that He was there and that He would help them. He helped give them Emunah to enable them to be saved. Today as well, we are feeling Geula in the air. We hope that it's coming very soon. And Hashem, once again, is showing us that He's here with us. A couple of weeks ago, we were able to shoot down all those missiles, and with more statistics coming out, it's clear that it was an open miracle. The odds of such a thing happening are astronomical. Then on Erev Pesach , we saw another open miracle that was captured on video camera! Palestinian teenagers took a car and rammed into yeshiva boys standing on the corner of a street. The video clearly shows the boys flying up into the air and coming down. Being saved from that alone was a miracle, but it goes further. The Palestinians got out of the car with a gun, and tried to shoot them, but the gun got jammed. They kept trying and trying but each time the gun would not work. They got so flustered and all of their plans got foiled They were caught and the boys escaped with just a few scratches and a bit of a bloody nose. These are Nissim! Weapons were later found in their car, revealing the mass murders they were planning. Hashem saved us once again. These are open miracles that we're seeing with our own eyes. Hashem is showing us openly that He's here. The Shomer Yisrael is taking care of us and protecting us. We have to internalize this Emuna. Va'Yaamen HaAm. This was the zechut that they needed to leave Mitzrayim . And this is the zechut we need today. B'ezrat Hashem , we will take these Simanim and have full Emunah in Hashem and we will see the Geula Shelemah B'Karov Amen ! Moadim L'Simcha

The sea is fundamental to the Makah Indians' culture and way of life. Their home territory is on the Olympic Peninsula in the northwest portion of the Evergreen State, between the Pacific Ocean's shoreline and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. For thousands of years, they have been hunting gray whales. Every component of the whale was used by the tribe for food, trade, and the creation of various necessities. It was guaranteed to Makah leaders that they may continue to fish and go whale hunting when they signed the Treaty of Neah Bay in 1855, the only treaty ever signed by the federal government to include that unique right.Listen now to learn more about the indigenous peoples that have inhabited the Olympic Peninsula since time immemorial!A special thank you goes out to Al Hirsch for providing the music for the podcast, check him out on YouTube.Find merchandise for the podcast now available at:     https://washington-history-by-jon-c.creator-spring.comIf you enjoy the podcast and would like to contribute, please visit: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/EvergreenpodIf you have any questions, episode ideas you'd like to see explored, or just have a general comment, please reach out at Historyoftheevergreenstatepod@gmail.comTo keep up on news for the podcast and other related announcements, please like and follow:https://www.facebook.com/HistoryoftheevergreenstatepodcastThank you for listening!

The Makah Tribe is one step closer to resuming whale hunts, decades after their last grey whale harvest. After numerous legal challenges, a federal judge how recommends the tribe be allowed the practice that is at the heart of their cultural and spiritual identity. Their last hunt—after grey whales were removed from the endangered species list—was marred by protests, active interference and even death threats against members of the tribe. We'll learn the cultural importance behind whale hunting and discuss the prospect it will begin again.

A little less than a month remains for public comment on a proposal to allow the Makah Indian Tribe to resume its hunt for gray whales.

The 1808 shipwreck of the Russian schooner Nikolai on the shores of the Quileute nation (in what is today Washington state) is remarkable primarily for its aftermath: the collective efforts of the Quileute, Hoh, and Makah nations to deal with 22 armed and desperate shipwrecked Russian sailors.

I rant about the Makah Tribe whaling and wrong way drivers in the grocery store.

We're joined by special guest cohost Racheal Heaton for a wide-ranging discussion with Makah Tribal Council member Patrick DePoe about treaties, whaling, the reality of tribal whaling in terms of numbers and impact, and all the dirty, dirty ish that's happened when interlopers have tried to stop it.

In this Confluence Podcast, Carol Craig, a Yakama educator and journalist, relates her experiences during the historic 1999 Makah whale hunt, of working with the Yakama Fish Commission, and the peoples’ grief over the loss of Celilo.

What happens when we go offline for a camping and hiking trip in the Olympic Peninsula with a plein air painter and a food blogger? We get really inspired. In a lot of ways, this is a simple episode about making friends offline. But it’s also about the headspace you cultivate when you step outside and how that makes room for thought and inspiration. And it’s also about experiencing an outdoor space through creative work and wanting to dig deeper than surface level when recreating. Last August, Columbia Sportswear brought Megan McDuffie and Heidi Annalise and (host) Gale Straub together for a backpacking trip. They learn about the surprising things they have in common, as well as the landscape around them. And to learn more, Gale calls up local Lorraine Greene, a member of the Makah tribe. Women Featured in this Episode: Heidi Annalise, Megan McDuffie, and Lorraine Greene. Hosted and produced by Gale Straub. In this episode, you'll hear: The benefits of taking online friends offline in the outdoors How food blogger Megan McDuffie and painter Heidi Annalise got started How the outdoors inspires creativity in us Insight as to what it's like to grow up on the Olympic Peninsula as a member of the Makah Tribe The sounds of the Olympic Peninsula of Washington Enjoy this episode?

Many of us are inspired at the thought of taking a journey of self discovery. Irene Skyriver took just such a journey—an epic solo kayaking trip to find herself and a new sense of connection with her ancestors. In her memoir Paddling with Spirits she chronicled her solo voyage from Alaska to her home in Washington’s San Juan Islands. Town Hall is proud to debut Irene as she vividly reimagined stories of her family history and native coastal ancestors (Tlingit and Makah), interweaving them with the true account of her adventures. Irene invited us to follow her on the water and through her past—through oil booms, orphanages, wartime romances, dance halls, and cattle ranches. Join Irene for a celebration of her heritage, and a chance to share her experiences of self reflection amidst the wild beauty of the coastal waters. Irene Skyriver comes to Town Hall with her debut memoir. Born in a ghost town and raised in the country, she is a rider of horses in full gallop across the Tibetan grasslands. An activist, an organizer, a deliverer of babies; a teen mother, now grandmother of 6. She is a tame rebel, a busy dreamer and singer of Earth songs, fearful of buildings and fearless in Nature. Recorded live at Green Lake Bathhouse Theater by Town Hall Seattle on Sunday, November 19, 2017.

Can non-human animals be “victims” of a crime? The Oregon Supreme Court recently decided they could be. We talk with Matthew Liebman, senior attorney with the Animal Legal Defense Fund, about the law of animals. Why and how do we prohibit animal cruelty? Is it to protect our own feelings, the inherent rights of animals themselves, a little of both? Does prohibiting cruelty protect us from hurting one another? Does a housefly have a right to an education? We discuss the difficulties of being perfect, the omnipresence of trade-offs, whaling by native peoples, whether a chimpanzee can sue in habeas corpus. And, come to think of it, why does Joe pronounce chimpanzee incorrectly, and how did he get Christian to start doing the same? This is the one about the role of animals in a system of human cooperation, and it features an all to brief return of the monkey selfie.
